Guardian News published this video item, entitled “Boris Johnson denies Cummings’ claims he was warned about Downing St party” – below is their description.
The prime minister has denied having been warned that a No 10 party held during a coronavirus lockdown in May 2020 was breaking the rules. Johnson repeated his apologies for ‘misjudgments made’ and claimed he thought the party was a work event and that nobody told him it was against the rules.
He also denied having seen the email invitation to the event until media reports about it emerged. His former top aide Dominic Cummings – now a fierce critic – alleged on Monday that the prime minister had been told the party broke the rules, and that he lied to parliament by denying it.
